Just in case someone I know here might be interested: I will be inaugurating this exhibition on Saturday, at 20:00h, at the Museo La Celestina (La Puebla de Montalbán, SPAIN). It reviews the visual culture of #Celestina and highlights her topicality in the 21st century. Highly recommended!

"Ironically...the highest dropout rates at universities are in computer sciences, business and administrative studies, and engineering and technology. The lowest, apart from medicine, dentistry and veterinary science, are in languages and historical and philosophical studies." 1/2

Do I know someone with a copy of "The SS in heavy metal lyrics" I could read? I do not have access to Metal Music Studies and I do not feel like paying 40€ for a footnote. If not, I will just write to the author, but maybe this method is a little bit quicker.

After having studied the influence of Terence's incunabula editions and illuminated manuscripts on the woodcuts of #Celestina, I have moved to another potential source: the dances of death. Celestina shares attributes with the old woman of Vostre's design (and its followers).

‘I did not go back to Oxford after the war. It was not just that I was still a cripple. There were plenty of cripples. But I could not face it. To me it was a city of ghosts. Of our eight scholars and exhibitioners who came up in 1912, Humphrey Sumner and I alone were alive.’ Harold Macmillan

Given some of the reporting of the last week, it’s clear that we’re in for another wave of discussion about whether Ukraine should be pushed to the negotiating table. A long🧵(also posted on the other site).
